The MARQUIS de La PaiIIiterie.


Probably but few Of the larse, ele-
giant and sppreciative audience that
assisted at and er joyed the perform
ance Of Monte Cristo have ever heard of
the Marquis de la Pailliterie, and yet
he was the grandfather OF Alexander
Davy Dumas, the famous poet dramat-
let and novelist. Gen. Dumas, the
father OF Alexander, was born In
Tirimie, Hay'i; his mother was an Az
ricsn girl. His ia her, the aforemen-
toned Marquis, who is about as we'll
known as Bersngers Mar quis de Gar
abas, who aft ,r the Frsnc1 revolution
returned from Germany, where DOR
ing those troublous times he was max.
ing bilboquetts, and when he passed
the frontiers OF France on his return
cried: Hats off! hats off near and
far. Bow down to the Marquis de
Carabas. Gen. Dumas was presents d
to the directory by Napoleon Bona
pate ss the "Hora.ius Coolies OF the
Tyrol," when at the battle OF Bixen be
alone defended bridge against the
enemy. He was noted for his prodi-
gious strength, being able, II is said,
to stIangle horee between his knees.
The fame Of his grandson and great
grandson, Alexander Dumas Fl g, is SO
we'll known that the mere mention OF
them awskens many pleasant and
agreeab memories. Alexander Du.
mas e s is principally known to the
lovers OF the stage through bis play OF
the Dame duI Cdmiiids, which has
been translated under several titles
asd presented on The English and
American boards. Alexander Dumas,
sr. g genius was awakened by the per.
formance OF an English company,
which, in 1927, presented some OF
Shakespesre's plays in Paris. In
common with several OF his contem-
poraries he felt that the French stage
needed reform and he resolved to be
one of the apostles of the new dts-
matte creed. Antony is said TO be the
best of his dramas. The cue
cess of Monte Cisto and The Three
Gudrdsmen and similar works was only
equsled by the wonderful rapidity
with which they were produced, Such
was the COL fidcpce Ct Dumas in the
fertility of his Imagination, that 10
1916 he made a contract with two
newspapers to furnish them with
an amount Of manuscript equal
to sixty volumes year
Gen. Dumas was sent to Paris and ed.
ucatsd. Burns, who has been said by
noted English essay st to want the
spirit Of chivalry, has these lines;
"Man's inhumanity to man. makes
countless thousands MOURN" and il
appears like poetical Justice that the
descendant OF negro from the jungles
Of Africa should be brought back to
civiliz ID Europa to become one of the
most noted men of bis day. He has a
son and grandson.
